Why I need a new home

Infant, young children or pregnancy

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Panda is six years old, pretty healthy, a low-maintenance husky, but by that I mean he only requires two, 45 minute walks a day -- not a five-mile run in the woods every morning. He hates the vet, but loves the people at the dog store who give him treats. He's great on the leash, unless there is a squirrel, in which case, all bets are off, both for his manners and for the life of the squirrel. I'd give him a B- on cats (we've had two since adopting Panda). In terms of other mammals, I heard from his first foster mom that he gets an A around bears and is medium around moose (Panda hails from the woods of rural Saskatechwan; he was found roving around in search of a couch to call home). We love him dearly, but unfortunately are rehoming him for the sake of our 1 year old son. While Panda is generally good with children, he's been increasingly aggressive towards our son, and though he hasn't bitten him (or anyone for that matter), we worry what might happen once our son is fully walking.
